Finger Lakes Humane Society

Please give an urgently needed gift in the honor of WeeBiscuit to help us with recent extraordinary animal care expenses. Our shelter is at maximum capacity and we desperately need your emergency support! My name is WeeBiscuit. I am a dwarf horse, which means I am very small. For many years, I lived with my herd mate Cole (a pony) in a very scary place.

In May of 2019, we were called upon to assist 9 adult potbellied pigs who were very hungry, thirsty and itchy. They were in great need of nourishing food, hydration and medical care to relieve their suffering. One pig went on to give birth to 3 piglets, which brought our number in need of care up to 12.

The adoption process is not difficult; it is aimed at assuring that you and your cat or dog are good matches and will have a long and happy future together. A questionnaire gathers information about you, your family, and any other pets you may have. Then, one of our adoption counselors will discuss your compatibility with the cat or dog you have selected.

If you are a Senior Citizen (55 years and over) adoption fees may be completely waived for select shelter animals. Seniors adopting Seniors (The Silver Paws Program) is an animal adoption program of Finger Lakes SPCA (Bath Shelter). This service provides free adoption packages (which includes spaying/neutering, initial vaccines and deworming, a dose of flea preventive (leukemia and FIV testing for cats) to senior citizens who are at least 55 years old who are compatible with and willing to adopt a select shelter orphan.

Pets that are not spayed or neutered can add to the severe pet overpopulation problem when they are allowed to breed. Finger Lakes SPCA wants to help put an end to pet overpopulation. Catnip is a public service program that helps to reduce feline overpopulation in our area by preventing births, thus reducing the number of unwanted and uncared for cats in our area.
